4. Well, let's not pretend there won't be any growing pains...
...or that all of those will clearly result from lifting the ban.

Keep that tally going, and whether or not we see growing pains, let's be conscious that these are consequences of growth. And let's celebrate every day that move toward equality.

7. 136 hours now -
and still the US military has not fallen apart! Our Evil Liberal plan looks like it has failed. Curses!

Didn't Gates also say something stupid about having segregated sleeping arrangements?
